The Gun Flame Family's machine factory is the most advanced in the entire Empire.

Although the power is still steam power, after Binghe crossed through the factory, he found that the equipment and instruments were very quiet, and the clothes and uniforms of the personnel were very clean and tidy. It's more like the factory ethos of the seventies and eighties.

The copper gates and steel pipes in the factory are very sonorous. It is clear that it was regularly oiled and maintained, and the inscription on it clearly shows the production period, the steam calendar 1011.

The world has been developing for thousands of years in the age of steam. Compared with the first industrial revolution on the earth, which was only a hundred years, the world's steam revolution technology has developed enough to the point of refinement.

#

Technological progress and technological development sometimes lead to conceptual separation.

Scientific progress sometimes interrupts technological progress, and when scientific progress reaches the intergenerational level, sometimes the technology of the previous generation is far from being developed to the limit and is put on hold.

The earth's steam technology was developed for a hundred years, and then suddenly replaced by rapid electric technology and internal combustion engine technology. After the Second Industrial Revolution, the clusters of workers and engineers of the earth, began to stop on the production lines of steam technology, began to gather on the production lines of electricity and internal combustion engines =.

And by that time, the technology of a large number of steam-powered production lines on the planet had frozen. Only on large warships, boilers of large power plants, steam technology continues to be practiced, and in factories steam technology equipment ceases to advance.

If you can erect wires on the earth, you don't need to study the power of steam engines used in factories. If you have a gel pen to buy, who will buy a ballpoint pen? There is tungsten carbide as the nib material, who still studies the steel material of the ballpoint pen nib?

#

The world's mainstream industrial production uses steam.

But that doesn't mean that there is no electricity, and Gunflame Binghe saw a hydroelectric generator set on a nearby dam in his home to provide electric lighting for the family college.

In the past few hundred years, electric power technology has been very small-scale, this kind of energy belongs to the machinist's delicate gadgets in the laboratory, and steam technology is the mature technology that can be used on a large scale and industrialized in this millennium.

Binghe's attention was drawn to the system of these steam engines. Humming a "punk, punk, punk" tune in his mouth, he took a step and scurried around here.

A 1.2-tall kid scurrying around in the factory. In the process of gear engagement, the metal conveyor belt conveyed, revealing the joy of discovering the toy.

Of course, this disorderly chaos in an orderly factory, with guns and flames, quickly attracted the attention of factory managers.

Gunflames, the man in neatly dressed and rubber boots, ran down the metal staircase and stopped in front of the running Binghe. After bowing, he said politely

"This young lady, please stop. In front is a high-pressure steam boiler, and the red-hot steam is dangerous for you. ”

Binghe was stunned, and then the housekeeper behind him who finally caught up coughed, Blue Inch Mechanic, this is Young Master Binghe.

Binghe nodded hurriedly, and hurriedly said to the person in front of him in a corrective tone: "Yes, yes, I'm a man,"

The blue inch consul in charge of this place was stunned, and then slightly owed money and said, "Young master, I'm sorry, your appearance is so cute, I really can't see it." ”

Binghe nodded and said, "Just remember it next time." ”

Binghe tilted his body, still poking his head out, and looked curiously at the passage behind Lan Cun, and the sound of pressure cooker exhaust echoed in the aisle.

Inside, a group of workers are looking at the pressure gauges, operating the gates of the pipes, and regulating the high-pressure steam in the various pipes throughout the factory. ）

Binghe retracted his gaze and asked Lan Cun, "Can't I really go over?" ”

Lan Cun shook his head resolutely. Then he shouted to the position behind him: "River fish, you come here,"

A few minutes later, the man came running, neatly dressed but with a mask on his face. Lan Cun said: "Roll up your sleeves and show the fourth young master your injury two years ago." ”

After hearing this, the worker's eyes were a little embarrassed, and he said, "I'm afraid this will scare the young master." Lan Cun said resolutely: "Pick it up." ”

The worker's first sleeve was replaced, and the terrible burns of burns were exposed on his arms. And Binghe couldn't help but take a few steps back when he saw this hideous burn.

#

Lan Cun was very satisfied when he saw Binghe's appearance, and said with a hint of snort in his smile: "Young Master, this is still too dangerous for you. We are no better than the imperial capital here, and the doctors have limited skills. ”

Binghe nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, okay, I know." If you don't look at it, you don't look at it, I'm here for, well, for? ”

Binghe rubbed his head, due to some special reasons (gold finger), Gun Flame Binghe was a little forgetful.

The butler bowed his head and said, "Young Master, you are going to see the weapon." ”

"Yes, yes, I'm looking at the guns, yes, and remote-controlled rockets." Gun Flame Binghe pointed at the blue inch and asked, "You know what?" ”

Lan Cun clasped his hands in front of his chest, bent down slightly and said, "I'm honored to lead the way for you." ”

After walking for a few minutes, Binghe suddenly stopped, and everyone also stopped.

Binghe touched his head, turned his head unhappily and said, "Wait, your etiquette of bowing to me just now is wrong." (The etiquette of the blue inch just bowing is an invitation to the family lady.) ）

Lan Cun pretended to be stunned and looked at the group of servants. The servant spread his hands.

The mechanic looked at Bing with an angry look on his face, and nodded unknowingly.

Binghe picked angrily, stretched out his finger, pointed at Lan Cun and said, "I'm not a girl, you did it on purpose the second time, no, my hairstyle is men's, and you did it on purpose the first time." (Since Binghe was only five years old at this time, the five-year-old brain had some difficulty adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing, thinking very slowly, and the reflex arc was extremely long.) ）

It's just that Binghe still forgot that he is young now, jumping angrily, in the eyes of others, he really can't be vicious, but fierce and cute, and the corners of the mouths of the people around him are slightly curved, trying to hold back a smile.

"Realized" and made a "mistake" Lan Cun, is a smile and a helpless look, bowing his head and apologizing again, but out of the core, everyone else can see that this apologetic attitude is coaxing children.

"Hmph" Bing raised his head, and his soft voice was soft, but he tried to put on an imposing voice and said: "Lead the way." ”

"Poof", finally someone couldn't help it and chuckled

Hearing the laughter, Binghe was a little annoyed. Unable to contain his anger, he kicked at the machine next to him, but he used too much force, and he fell, of course, when he was about to land, he was held by the assistant Lan Cun.

#

Twenty minutes later, Binghe, who was sitting in the carriage, blushed a little. Because after more than ten minutes of rethinking, Gun Yan Binghe felt very ashamed,

Binghe realized that this body, no matter how it behaved, could not change the image of a kindergarten child trying to pretend to be an adult. And now I have to control my emotions, otherwise I will be brain-dead.

"Ignorant youth," Binghe sighed in an emotional tone. "Emotional, with the perspective, the brain focuses on small areas, causing my thinking patterns to be habitually waiting in the childish stage. So, I'm going to talk less, publish less, and watch more. ”

#

Twenty minutes later

When the group came to the shooting range, they saw some people in officer uniforms talking and laughing between shooting, with white collars and black military boots. As well as epaulettes on military uniforms, showing that these people were officers

When his group was meeting these people, Lan Cun smiled, obviously an acquaintance said hello. And after these people saw Binghe and learned Binghe's identity, they all stood aside and gave full etiquette. This kind of etiquette makes Binghe a little cramped. - In Binghe's eyes, these people are armed with guns. Holding a gun = being unreasonable.

Later, Binghe learned that these people were all disciples of the family. The Gun Flame family has been in business for hundreds of years, and in the inheritance of nine generations, it has branched out and given birth to a large number of clan disciples, and these descendants have many side lines in addition to inheriting the title.

#

The disciples of these side families constitute the backbone of the Gun Flame family, and they are in important positions such as the arsenal and the army, and the family has also opened a school, with militarized education and family honor, which has been implemented in everyone since childhood.

The title is not the one person, but the whole family, and the whole family is a community with the title and the industrial production system. This relationship is a bit similar to some factories of some state-owned enterprises in the seventies of the twentieth century, where several generations were in one factory and formed a group relationship within the factory.

@

This is a factory system that has been transformed from a clan system. This is true not only of the Gun Flame family, but also of the military industry and aristocracy of the entire continent.

Because of this kind of operation of the nobility, even the emperor could not easily deprive the nobles of their titles and rights. Like the Gunflame family, if the Emperor deprives the earl of his title by his own preference,

Personnel in the arsenal are paralyzed by the dismissal of the supervisors, and the workers in the arsenal see their families as representatives of their own interests. The Gunflame family belonged to the military-industrial aristocracy within the empire.

#

Binghe came to the ordnance factory with great interest, and his behavior of touching the west was very tolerant of the supervisors in the factory. Of course, you can't escape being teased by them verbally.

It is rumored that Binghe is a little stupid and did not speak until he was more than five years old.

But the Earl is now in good health, and the Earl's eldest son is quite attentive to Binghe. At this time, the gun flame Binghe was a "stupid son of the landlord's family" in the eyes of everyone
